    There's no gain for taking the old guard to the courts when you can just heap all blame on them with impunity anyway. And every politician is aware that they want to retire without the threat of being caught out for all the waste, kickbacks and bribes they've taken over the years.

    Not nessecarily speaking of charges against the Bush admin here... but i think it would be great if the next administration (hypothetically speaking) were willing to charge the previous will any illegal crap they got up to, this would force the administration that carried such an action out to be whiter than white and probably every administration afterwards would have the worry that they could be charged....

    The current policy seems something like asking the new drug dealer if he wants the old one he replaced to goto jail...

    It's been a while since I posted any polling information on this site (Seriously, it must have at least been a fortnight). So when this hit my Email inbox today I thought it might be interesting to some.

    62% of americans want at least some inquiry into Bush's wrongdoings.

    Surprisingly this isn't built along partisan lines (though there is a clear divide there, but it is not some of the 90% of Republicans oppose/90% of Democrats support stuff that we are used to reading).
    Rest in Peace TosaInu, the Org will be your legacy
